Powersports Extended Service Contracts for ATVs: Covered Mechanical Parts

Did you know that there are health benefits to ATV off-roading? The physical exertion alone to operate the machine is enough to give you a complete body workout. The adrenaline rush that you only experience from ATV off-roading also gives your heart a good exercise, according to Powersports extended service contracts provider, Torque Group. This is perhaps why you will find most off-roading enthusiasts physically fit, at least those who regularly take their ATVs for a drive on the tracks.

If you're a regular off-roading adventurer, you'd want to keep your ATV in tip-top shape at all times so it's always ready to go. Typically, new ATVs come with a manufacturer's warranty, as with any other brand-new vehicle. This warranty covers factory installed mechanical parts. When this lapses, you will be without coverage. This is where Powersports extended service contracts step in. They generally cover mechanical breakdowns also included in the manufacturer's warranty, depending on the contract.

Commonly covered ATV mechanical parts

Your ATV Powersports vehicle has several mechanical parts, from the engine to the drivetrain and transmission, cooling and fuel systems, and electrical systems, to name a few. These parts work harder than the usual mechanical components of a "regular" car because they're mostly used on rough terrain. This is why sometimes, even with proper care, they experience mechanical breakdowns. On this note, you should know which mechanical parts are covered by your extended service contract to make the most out of said contract, and of course, get your money's worth.

Depending on the stipulations in your extended service contract, all or some of these parts could be covered:

1. Engine- Engine block, crankshaft, pistons, oil pump, connecting rods, and valves

2. Drive system/drivetrain- Drive shaft, internal drive gears, bearings, chains, and primary drive case

3. Transmission- Transmission case, gears, mounts, and bearings

4. Cooling system- Coolant reservoir, water pump, cooling fan module and motor, and radiator

5. Electrical system- Voltage regulator, starter, alternator, ignition coil, and manual switches

6. Others- Drive axle, suspension, brakes, gauges, and seals

This is not a comprehensive list of the parts covered in an extended service contract. These are just to give you an idea of the extent of coverage you could enjoy from Powersports extended service contracts. It's important to pay attention to the inclusions in your contract to be aware of which parts are actually covered as well as the terms of coverage.
